God is not a man, that He should lie, nor a son of man, that He should repent; Has He said, and will He not do it? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good? (Numbers 23:19)
We are in another political season when we again see politicians advertising with the slogan, Promises Made. Promises Kept! Unfortunately, that claim is often just a catchy slogan that often isn't always true. But with our omnipotent and sovereign God, promises are always fulfilled; .. It is impossible for God to lie. (Hebrews 6:18).
And He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again. (Mark 8:31) Promises Made.
And he said to them, "Do not be amazed; you are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who has been crucified. He has risen; He is not here. (Mark 16:6) Promises Kept!
Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Fathers house are many dwelling places; If it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also. (John 13:1-3) Promises Made.
And without a doubt coming soon... Promises Kept!
Maranatha!
